ProLodge guest Genero Robles in his room (Photo by Jana Birchum) When Alejandro Hernandez moved into the motel room provided for him this summer, he was relieved to no longer worry about getting run over by a car while sleeping. Before being admitted to Protective Lodging, at one of the five properties bought or leased by the city to protect unhoused Austinites from COVID-19, Hernandez had been living under I-35 at 38th½ Street for the last six years. "You've got to be careful out there," Hernandez told us in the hallway of his "ProLodge," while awaiting an appointment with the CommUnityCare street medicine team. "You've got to always watch for cars, because if you roll into the street, you might get run over."
